Briefings
The Portuguese Socialist Party (PS) proposes a three-year emergency housing plan to the government, including a tax exemption on capital gains for homes sold up to 300,000 euros for personal use. This initiative follows a previous August 2025 letter to Prime Minister Luís Montenegro that proposed seven measures, but no response was received. The PS also highlights the creation of the National Housing Access Service (SENHA) to integrate existing state instruments and mobilize public and private sectors. The proposal is being developed through a national audit across five axes, with a public presentation scheduled at the end of the current process.
